WARNING!
Delivery of water to fixtures intended for hand washing is
recommended to be controlled by valves listed to ASSE 1070. This
fitting is NOT factory preset and can be adjusted to deliver water at
temperatures exceeding 110°F (43°C). Further, mechanical mixing
valves DO NOT provide automatic control of water temperature.
Due to effects of various water conditions, periodic verification of
outlet water temperature is required.
Spout hose (865.963.00.0) is not to be used as a pressurized
supply line and is only for connecting faucet to the control box.
i. Open the yellow battery housing
and insert 6 ‘AA’ batteries
according to the diagram inside
the housing. NOTE: Make sure
the batteries are oriented properly
before testing the faucet.
ii. Attach the wiring connectors
(gray to gray, black to black).
Note: Connectors are keyed for
proper installation as shown.
Snap completed connections,
into the wiring harness as shown.

red sensor light at the faucet
outlet will glow continuously for 5
seconds. After the light switches
off, place your hands in front of
the faucet. The faucet should

2. Adjusting the Water Temperature
a. The yellow mixer handle inside
control box is used to adjust
water temperature in dual-
supply installations. Turn the
handle clockwise to decrease
temperature or counter-clockwise
to increase temperature.
b. Mixed water temperature must
be checked at the point of
use and the CFC mixing valve
adjusted to ensure delivery of
water at a safe temperature no
exceeding 110°F (43°C). Water
temperatures in excess 110°F
(43°C) are dangerous and may
cause scalding, severe injury or
death!

Care and Maintenance
Periodic inspection and yearly maintenance by a licensed contractor is required for all thermostatic mixing elements. Corrosive water conditions and/
or unauthorized adjustments or repair could render the thermostatic valve ineffective for service intended. Regular checking and cleaning of the valve’s
internal components and check stops helps assure maximum life and proper product function. Frequency of cleaning and inspection depends on local
water conditions. All Chicago Faucets ttings are designed and engineered to meet or exceed industry performance standards. Care should be taken
when cleaning this product. Do not use abrasive cleaners, chemicals, or solvents as they can result in surface damage. Use mild soap with warm water
for cleaning and protecting the surface of Chicago Faucets ttings.

Handheld Programming Unit lets you program, maintain, and monitor our electronic faucets from
the palm of your hand. Commander features a ruggedized housing, infrared communications, and touch-screen technology. Refer to the
Commander Quick Start Guide to get started.
Faucet Adjustment Overview
Operating modes and sensor ranges can be adjusted with a manual operation through the infrared sensor. A traditional lavatory faucet is shown as an
example. Faucet adjustment operations apply to all models. Alternatively, operating modes and sensor ranges can be adjusted with the Chicago Faucets
Commander
™
Handheld Programming Unit. For more information, visit chicagofaucets.com/commander.
Operating Modes Description
Cleaning Mode The faucet is inactive for 90 seconds.
Normal Mode The faucet is activated if it senses a hand presence. This is the default operating mode of the faucet.
Metering Mode (10 s) The faucet will shut off after 10 seconds regardless of hand presence detected.
Scrub Mode (60 s) The faucet will shut off 60 seconds after the detection of the last hand presence.
Scrub Mode (180 s) The faucet will shut off 180 seconds after the detection of the last hand presence.
Sensor Range Adjustment Change the detection distance of the infrared sensor. The default sensor range is approximately 1˝ beyond the spout.
Reset All settings will be reset to original factory
settings.
In order to set the operating modes, the faucet needs to be placed into “Manual Setting” mode. At this time, operating modes can be changed within the
next 30 minutes. If you do not have a Commander Programming Unit and would like to manually change modes, contact 1-800-832-8783 for instructions.

QUICK TROUBLESHOOTING
Follow the steps below to x common problems. For detailed troubleshooting, visit chicagofaucets.com. Before troubleshooting, remove any objects in detection zone and make sure sensor is clear of debris. Ensure
power is applied and solid red light appears during rst 5 seconds after power-up.
The faucet is leaking:
From outlet – tighten or replace outlet insert using included key.
From supply stops – install or replace lter screen gaskets (see diagram on pg. 1).
No water ow or ow is limited:
Make sure supply hoses are connected and supply stops are fully open. Clean or replace lter screen gaskets or outlet insert.
Water ow does not stop:
If water ows continuously but stops when hand enters detection zone, reverse solenoid electrical connections.
Faucet does not properly detect user:
Remove and reapply power or run faucet to maximum run time. This will cause automatic recalibration of sensing eld. Recalibration is complete when solid red light disappears.
